Suunto recovery status always low
-
@marcrie sure if you feel that is way off. I use recovery time and recovery status too, but I don’t take it as exact science. Just like running performance, I take it as a guide, but mostly I take “action” by how I feel.

@isazi great article! thx a lot for this one !
A nice perk came up, from a simple post about suunto recovery status
-
@dbefas you’re welcome!

@andrasveres For me it’s just a useful Tool if I have doubts to do the Workouts. And in my case I made good experience with it. But if I look seriously on the recovery time after the workout I don‘t trust, especialy after bike workouts. The recovery time here is often to long.

Do i understand correct to calibrate the test ?
- need to be fully recovered;
- need to do 3 sleep tests (3 nights);
Can i do the sleep test and the the quick test after it (in the morning after sleep test - not 12 hours between those)? and repeat 3 consecutive nights?
PS: i use ambit3 peak + HRM smart sensor

@aqzaxs The text I posted was referring to quick test, but mostly is the same for sleep test too. Both test don’t need to be taken in sequence, however not sure about taking quick test right after the sleep test in the morning. The 12 hour distance is only mentioned at quick test so I guess it should be fine, but never tried that way. I used just the quick test. However, make sure before you take any of the test that you don’t have recovery time accumulated.

@andrasveres thx.
after read this topic and Ambit’s 3 user guide have another question:
do i need to leave the lower HR as rest HR in movescount after calibration (sleep test)? -
is the calibration test just to detect the lowest/rest HR?
is the same thing as i set the rest HR value in movescount? -
@aqzaxs I kept the lowest HR on whichever value the calibration test updated. I don’t think these test are only to detect the lowest value, hence there is a clear calibration result in the service menu, it also detect and store more data in the watch that is not visible for us. Maybe someone knows more about it, I surely don’t.
Can’t recall exactly, but if you modify the value through Movescount then after you sync your watch the tests will return calibration phase (not 100% sure though).
